Yeah, I space out on the dialogue. It's a tribute to Robert Carlyle that he can say "Dearie," endlessly without me cringing. lol.
And I do love arcs. Usually it's a sign of good continuity. Joss Whedon, who could string an arc out for a year, spoiled me for other shows. It's those underlying arcs that drive the premise of the series that I have no patience with, like The Mentalist's Red John, Last Resort, or Lost. It would be okay if it were a mini series, but otherwise I feel manipulated.
